Without A Fight
from A Better Place To Be by Hopeless Otis
lyrics
We can all find hope in these friendly faces that build us up and keep us going / So when it comes time for them to drag us down/ they will not break our stride, we will not hit the ground
They say they want to take my life / Whoever said that I'd go down without a fight? / And if I do I'm taking you with me
So I'll play along to all my Latterman records and know there's nothing to be afraid of / With lungs full of air and heart pumping blood there's never a good excuse to give up
They pumped you full of feelings so you can't find your own meanings / that ain't fucking poetry to me /
But I say living is a revolution in itself / Well what else is these days?
They say they want to take my life / Whoever said that I'd go down without a fight? / And if I do I'm taking you with me
So I'll play along to all my Latterman records and know there's nothing to be afraid of / With lungs full of air and heart pumping blood there's never a good excuse to give up
STAY TRUE TO WHAT YOU DO!
They say they want to take my life / Whoever said that I'd go down without a fight? / And if I do I'm taking you with me
So I'll play along to all my Latterman records and know there's nothing to be afraid of / With lungs full of air and heart pumping blood there's never a good excuse to give up
They pumped you full of feelings so you can't find your own meanings / that ain't fucking poetry to me /
But I say living is a revolution in itself / Well what else is these days?
They say they want to take my life / Whoever said that I'd go down without a fight? / And if I do I'm taking you with me
So I'll play along to all my Latterman records and know there's nothing to be afraid of / With lungs full of air and heart pumping blood there's never a good excuse to give up
STAY TRUE TO WHAT YOU DO!
